The most talented will be selected to live this unforgettable international experience, which combines sport, training, coexistence and a valuable cultural exchange.
For this new edition, young people and companions will travel supported by Assist Card, guaranteeing a safe and quiet experience: medical assistance, telemedicine, sports coverage, location for loss of luggage, among others.
“We are proud to support this initiative that encourages sports development and allows young people to pursue their dreams. In Assist Card we believe in the transforming power of sport, and that is why we have been present in multiple projects of this type throughout Latin America,” said Leonardo Tonhaiser, Country Manager of Assist Card Central America, Panama and the Caribbean.
In addition to sports activity, international coaches will share different social activities, such as a soccer clinic with the children of the Margarita Tejada Foundation, promoting values such as empathy, inclusion and teamwork.
The program has been a seedbed of success cases, such as Sergio Pérez, Quetzaltenango, today Malacateco player, and Jonathan Pozuelos, from Deportivo Mixco, both started their way in this same camp.
“Since 2017, we have given young Central Americans the opportunity to practice with some of the best coaches in the world and live experiences that change lives,” said Claudio Magnifico, organizer of the Argentine Soccer Campus.
This is a unique opportunity for young Guatemalans to take another step towards their football dreams, sharing with elite coaches representing the country in international stages.
